The invention relates to a goods protection device (1), comprising a housing (2, 21), in which or on which a detectable goods security element is arranged and an at least two-piece fixing means, with which the housing (2, 21) may be detachably fixed to a goods item or similar. The housing (2, 21) which is essentially closed to the exterior on said goods protection device (1), comprises a wall section (4), in which the wall of the housing (2, 21) has a thin embodiment such that said wall section (4) may be easily pierced with a tool (5) and said tool (5) extends through said wall region (4), opened as above, into the region of the fixing means (7, 8) inside the housing (2, 21) and thus releases parts of the fixing means (7, 8) and hence the fixing of the goods to the goods protection element (1).
